Discussion of fashion elements and looks that are traditionally considered somewhat "femme" but are presented in a masculine context. This is NOT about transvestism or crossdressing.

Charles Barkley was a very talented, professional basketball player for the Chicago Bulls in their heyday.

He made his mark by looking and acting as outrageously as possible. Best summed up at the end of Men in Black when Will Smith tells Linda Fierantino that Barkley is an alien and she responds, "Not much of a disguise!"

It looks to me like part of the reason he looks so good in the dress, is that he's got some padding in the chest. On the other hand as big, muscular and fierce as he looks in that photo, I'M not going to call him on it!

Thanks for that, if nothing else it is an excuse to pull out my MiB DVDs or blue things and watch them again, brilliant films!

I'm pretty sure it was Rodman too. I read the original comment early in the morning, and thought, "Did I somehow slip into a parallel universe?"

My apologies, it was Rodman!

All of this just goes to show how closely I follow professional sports!

Barkley is also a retired professional basketball player. (I hope I got at least THAT much right!)
